University Hospital outpatient entrance to close for renovation June 28

Beginning June 28, University Hospital’s outpatient entrance will close for approximately five weeks to undergo modifications as it will temporarily serve as the hospital’s main entrance during the construction of a new and expanded hospital lobby, slated to begin later this summer.

During the temporary closure of the outpatient entrance, all patients, visitors and employees will enter the hospital through the main entrance. A portion of the sidewalk adjacent to the outpatient entrance will be closed to facilitate the renovation project. A temporary walkway will be created in this area for pedestrian traffic. The renovation of the outpatient entrance will include the removal of part of the entrance overhang or canopy.

This work may result in temporary inconveniences for visitors, patients and employees. We ask for your understanding and patience as we seek to improve our facilities for all.

If you have any concerns with regard to the above construction project and its impact on operational issues, call 464-8888.
